Sorry, but I d'ont see anything related with special action with fonts
in user's guide.
During download, I had troubles on Xfnts.tgz. I redownload it and verify

md5.sum file. Now, every thing is ok with that.

Do I need to install DirectX (I'm on NT 4.0)? Then, whitch version and
where can I get it?

Thanks

Luc
